Almighty Game Designer Chapter 206: “Famine” is online
Chen Mo walked out of the studio, stretched his waist, and walked to the experience store.
Recently working on "Reaper of Souls" and "Don’t Starve", Chen Mo spends a lot of time in the studio discussing the details of the game with other people, but he also regularly visits the experience store to check it out, sometimes I will also go back to the second floor, be alone and think about some things.
As soon as Chen Mo walked into the experience store, he was caught by Zou Zhuo and Chang Xiuya.
"Hey, the manager is here."
"The manager, many people on the official forum of "Diablo" are discussing the follow-up gameplay of this game, have you seen it?" Chang Xiuya asked.
Chen Mo nodded: "Well, I saw it."
Chang Xiuya asked: "Then, how do you plan to solve the problem, the store manager? Although I don't know much, I feel that these players are hoping to play longer, and they also made a lot of suggestions."
Chen Mo sat down on the sofa, took the book from the side and looked at it at random: "This, in fact, I have read most of the suggestions, and there is no reference value. The DLC for "Diablo" is already being made. There will be some new content and new gameplay, which will be announced later."
"New profession?" Zou Zhuolai was energetic, "What new profession, is there a death knight?"
Chen Mofufu: "You are playing! The death knight is a profession only available in "Warcraft". This time "Dark" will have two new professions, the Crusaders and the Necromancer. There are new chapter plots."
Zou Zhuo asked: "Really, when will it go live?"
Chen Mo thought for a while: "The current progress is fairly smooth, about November."
"Huh?" Zou Zhuo was a little disappointed, "It will take more than two months, I can't wait!"
Chen Mo said: "That's a whole DLC. There are so many things to do. You think you can do it if you do it."
Zou Zhuo nodded: "Hey, yes. But I see the reaction on the forum, many old players can't wait. The store manager, would you like to disclose the news? So everyone has a hope."
Chen Mo said: "The sales of "Diablo" is still relatively stable, which means that there are always new players joining. There will be no major problems in the short term, so let's leave a surprise for the players. "
Zou Zhuo: "..."
Chen Mo said: "Oh, yes, there is a new game for everyone to play."
Zou Zhuo said in surprise: "Huh? The store manager, are you going to make a new game again? Store manager, you...didn't you say you want to do DLC for "Diablo"?"
Chen Mo nodded: "Yes, do DLC, and make a new game by the way."
Zou Zhuo: "..."
Chang Xiuya asked: "Really? What type? I want to play "Plants vs. Zombies"!"
Chen Mo said: "It's not easy to describe this genre, it's a survival game. The first version should be developed in half a month, and it will be released directly at that time. Let's play it."
……
At the end of September, more than two months after "Diablo" was launched, a game called "Famine" quietly landed on the Thunder game platform.
There was no publicity warm-up this time, let alone advertising, Chen Mo didn't even post on Weibo.
So many players suddenly found a new game when they logged into the Thunder game platform, thinking that they had read it wrong.
Besides the surprise, it's multiple dullness.
"Fuck? Why did Chen Mo update a new game silently?"
""Famine"? Does this name feel cool, or is it a dual platform for PC and mobile phone? Data interoperability!"
"Uh...this game is not big, nearly 2G. What kind of game is this?"
"Quickly, download it and have a look!"
"Charging! 20 yuan."
"It's okay, it's not expensive, but the price also reveals that it is a small game."
"Sure, Chen Mo has finished developing "Diablo". It has only been more than two months, and there is not enough time for him to develop large-scale games."
"Let me see the introduction of this game."
Introduction to the "Famine" game.
This is a sandbox game that combines elements of adventure, survival, role-playing, cultivation, and construction. The protagonist is exiled to a barren famine world, and must rely on his own hands and limited supplies to survive as much as possible. Of course, if you can arm yourself and defeat the demons in adventure mode, then you can (maybe) return to the real world.
Game Features:
Rich game elements, explore the unknown world.
Plan your actions and make good use of all supplies to survive.
Give full play to your creativity and explore endless possibilities.
Online with friends to face the unknown threats of the famine world.
……
After reading this game introduction, most players are dumbfounded.
"Blowing so much is nothing more than advocating that I am a sandbox game similar to "Earth OL"!"
"It's a bit of a joke, what a big game "Earth OL" is, "Don't Starve" is less than 2G, so I am ashamed to call myself a sandbox? How many things can I put in here?"
"The problem is that Chen Mo made it in two months. Focus on it. Make a sandbox game in two months! Afraid you are making me funny?"
"Uh, I actually took a look at the screen. The screen of this game is relatively simple. It is 2D, so it doesn't need so many resources. Maybe the gameplay is richer. I plan to buy one, after all, it is Chen Mo's Games."
"I think Chen Mo seems to be gone forever on the path of Yao Mozi. This game seems to be a masochistic game. A person desperately wants to survive in a desolate world~IndoMTL.com~ How hard is this, what is the picture of playing this game?"
"Didn't the game introduction say it, this is a survival game, try to live as long as possible."
"Hey, I really don't know why Chen Mo is doing this kind of game? Isn't it good to develop the DLC of "Diablo"? It feels like the cells of literary youth are at work."
"I also think that when you look at this style of painting, it feels like a black humor. The protagonist’s ecstasy duo, and this peculiar style of painting, it feels like Chen Mo used it to play the ticket. I didn’t even hit any ads."
"Forget it, just pretend not to see it."
"I went to play it, and I felt that this game was quite attractive to me. The main introduction stated that this game can give full play to my creativity. Remember "Plants vs. Zombies" and "Warcraft"?"
"I think it may not be Chen Mo's work. It may also be an assistant's practice work. How about hanging up to cheat money?"
"...I still choose to believe in Chen Mo's character."
"Well, for the sake of Chen Mo's face, let me go and play."
Although many players instinctively ignore this game, a large number of players also choose to buy the game. In addition to trust in Chen Mo's reputation, part of the reason is that the style of the game is very unique and the core fun of the game is also clear.
As a game that aims to survive and calls itself a sandbox, is there such a fun in the introduction?
This is a question that many people are wondering.
